MY JOURNEY AS A TRANSFER STUDENT AT THE

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS

College life creates some of the best memories of our lives and brings the best lessons we will ever learn both inside and outside the lecture hall. At my university, I made friends for life and even had a chance to travel the world. I want to share my experience at the University of Kansas since Sept. 1 was National College Colors Day! Although I spent my freshman year at Bethany College in Lindsborg, Kansas, as a Running Swede, I transferred to the University of Kansas and officially became a Jayhawk. I decided to transfer after finishing all the French language coursework available at Bethany during my freshman year, and I still had so much to learn. The choice was not easy, but I will never regret my days at KU. I was able to explore this beautiful romance language further by studying abroad in France for a semester during my junior year. Talk about an unforgettable college experience! I am a proud KU alumnus and will represent my college colors whenever I have the opportunity! While at KU, we won the NCAA National Basketball Championship under the leadership of Larry Brown and Danny Manning. I will never forget the incredible campus atmosphere that year. The Lawrence campus is already stunning, but the energetic environment made the university even more remarkable. As for sorority life, I was invited to join Alpha Phi sorority as a sophomore, where I made those lifelong friends I spoke of earlier. At KU, I achieved the full college experience and grew into the person I am today. Despite only being on campus for 2 1/2 years due to my study abroad in France and then the UK, I will always be a proud Jayhawk who can wave the wheat with the best of them! Everyone has their own college experience and jaw-dropping stories, which is why Dennis and I love hearing about different people’s personal college experiences. Please share your university colors and stories with us (especially if you are also a KU Jayhawk) !
